Mixed Biopolymer Systems Based on Starch
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A binary mixture of starch–starch or starch with other biopolymers such as protein and non-starch polysaccharides could provide a new approach in producing starch-based food products. In the context of food processing, a specific adjustment in the rheological properties plays an important role in regulating production processing and optimizing th

Treatment of Clinical Solid Waste Using Steam Autoclave as a Possible Alternative Technology of Incineration
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A steam autoclave was used to sterilize bacteria in clinical solid waste in order to determine an alternative to incineration technology in clinical solid waste management. The influence of contact time (0, 5, 15, 30 and 60 min) and temperature (111 °C, 121 °C and 131 °C) at automated saturated steam pressure was investigated. Results showed tha

Determinants of Performance in Indonesian Banking: a cross-Sectional and Dynamic Panel Data Analysis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper examines determinants of bank performance in Indonesia for the period of 1994-1999. It was pooled cross-sectional time series and dynamic panel data models. This research incorporates the traditional Structure-Conduct- Performance (SCP) and Relative Efficiency (RE) hypotheses. The estimation results show that bank performance industry is

Outbreak of Melioidosis and Leptospirosis co-Infection Following a Rescue Operation.
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We analyzed the epidemiological data of all people who were involved in the search and rescue operation in Lubuk Yu, a natural recreational forest with waterfall and stream. The hospital admission records of the cases who fulfilled the case definition and the environmental samples result taken at Lubuk Yu recreational area were studied. 153 people

The Consistency of Islamic and Medical Perspectives in the Control of the Covid-19 Pandemic
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Controlling the current COVID-19 pandemic requires infection control at both the individual and global levels. There is insufficient information on the consistency between Islamic principles and medical guidelines regarding infection control measures. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the consistency between Islamic principles and evidence-bas

Passively q-Switched Pulses Generation from erbium-Doped Fiber Laser Using Lutetium Oxide as Saturable Absorber
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper, a configuration of a passively Q-switched Erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) using a Lutetium Oxide (Lu2O3) thin film as a saturable absorber (SA) is experimentally implemented to generate high pulse energy with a high signal to noise ratio. A stable Q-switched pulse train is initiated at the input pump power of 30.442mW, and maximum pu

Characterization of Forsterite Bioceramics
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The present work is on the synthesis of forsterite (Mg2SiO4) powder using talc and magnesium oxide powders as the starting materials followed by a heat treatment process. Sintering behavior and mechanical properties of the forsterite bodies were evaluated from 1200ºC to 1500°C. Forsterite phase were detected in samples without any secondary phase

Toxic Sports: Unscreened Diseases are Threatening Wellbeing from Conception to Completion of Neonatal Screening Program
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Medical Screening is a basic test, which identifies rare and severe health problems. A newborn screening program (NSP) can detect disorders before they become symptomatic. Early treatment of these endocrine disorders can prevent intellectual disability and life-threatening crises. The hearing impairment will precipitate neurodevelopmental delay, ma

“send Them Home!”: Critical Discourse Analysis of Petitions Against Rohingya Refugees in Malaysia During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The difficulties brought by the implementation of the cordon sanitaire in Malaysia to contain the spread of Covid-19 and longstanding local grievances have led to an explosion of xenophobic sentiments towards refugees in the country during the pandemic. The prospect of more refugee boats arriving after hundreds were turned away (Ratcliffe, 17 April

The Three Abrahamic Faiths and their Roles in Making Peace, Unity and co-Existence
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The three Divine Abrahamic faiths i.e. Judaism, Christianity and Islam, revealed to the prophets of God, are divine religions that shape outlook of life, people’s perception, culture and civilization and enhance the relationship between God-man-universe. In this process, people who adhere to a particular religion tend to explore the phenomena thr
